Is the OE matte, satin, or gloss? You have both sets, right? OE and replacement?

Worst explanation ever. It is racism basically because you want to declare it so, even if the basis for the premium difference is more factually sound that the policy premium differences for age or sex. Basically it is just off limits because you want it to be, which is not a very sound basis...

Why is that racism? I have no idea if it is true in New Zealand, but how is that different than using age or sex for significantly different risk? Is that ageism and sexism? I am assuming there is a significant difference for purposes of the discussion.

So this was May 5. Two months later, is it repaired? Does it drive well?

Note he is in New Zealand. It may be very different there.

Understeer was the very first discovery upon the Gurney Flap's initial use in racing by Gurney: "The first application of the flap was in 1971, after Gurney retired from driving and began managing his own racing team full-time. His driver Bobby Unser had been testing a new Len Terry early...

FYI, the flap in that link generated downforce not of 60kg but 110kg, or 242 pounds, almost twice what you posted. Your points are otherwise clearly understood, though, and it makes me wonder whether a really good driver could post better, same, or worse times on a high speed road course with...

Sorry to post a superfluous discussion, but I have tracked the car, and I intend to do so again, and given the aggressive nature of the gurney flap, I was genuinely curious whether it did anything at all, especially since it is bolted to a spoiler which is bolted down to a trunk lid. gbadger...

No gyro or anything?

You are saying these are the Ford OEM pads?

It is not a country. It is an insurance company. So, what do you do if you are the company CEO, and your company will sustain a loss if you do not act. Your actuaries give you the following information: Group A is 70% of our policy holders. They account for 10% of our claims. Group B is...

Insurance rates are set by the number of minor drivers in your household. For instance, if you have a 16 year old minor driver, your rates will increase. It does not matter if you say he will not be driving your car. Then, when he decides to go live with your ex-wife, because she promises...

I will look for that video

Thanks - hard to tell from your photo, but in your opinion do they look and perform just like the OE wheels?

Thank you. Did the center caps work? Can you tell any differences from the OE wheels? Mine appear a little differently, but mine are not clean right now now.

Along with corresponding extra lateral force pulling on the rear of the car to the outside of the turn, lol!

I missed the comments. What is the better way?

The handling pack brakes were awesome at the track - impressed the hell out of me. No brake fade at all and allowed me to brake the car later and later into the turns than I thought was physically possible . . . surprising, really. I don't know how long they last, though. I have not owned...

Did you get the same wheel widths and backspacing as the stock Ford handling package wheels? I was wondering if aftermarket manufacturers are making those, which would make swapping wheels easier when going back to the Trofeos for the track.

LOL. Yeah, I needed the back seat.
